Enjoying the Last Days of Summer

It seems like we have been either traveling or running from activity to activity since we have been home from China. This was our first weekend in a long time we have had nothing to do...and it was so nice! On Saturday, we spent the afternoon at the park near our house. Luckily, we had the whole park to ourselves.

Jackson and his friend Aidan spent most of their time "rip-sticking" around the park. They are getting pretty good and are now starting to do tricks.

He normally wears a helmet, but I couldn't get a good picture of his face so I had him take it off for this one photo.

I spent a lot of time chasing Benjamin around the playground. He has now decided he doesn't like to have his picture taken. So, I had to catch him when he wasn't expecting it.

Lillian showed off her acrobatic skills at the park. She is so funny!

She loves to play on the blanket in the park...but doesn't like the grass.

Lillian spent a lot of time walking along the park bench. If only she would get brave enough to let go...
